Is it just me or did Sony compare PSP, PS3, and PS2 sales all put together vs. Wii and DS and 360 as seperates? In other words, Sony family vs. DS vs. Wii vs. 360. They actually used that in their conference didn't they

Last year they showed off hot new JPN games like White Knight Story. That was when devs were still learning the PS3 and there weren't many games in production.

Now A YEAR LATER and we get NOTHING. Where is your PSP support for 2008 JAPAN?!? US has Clank, God of War. Where are the new PS3 games for late 2008, early 2009?

Around the same time I start thinking the 400lb prostitutes on the jerry springer show are hot, or I go blind.

Both cases is never. Let the N64-era 3D die the horrible, ugly death as it should. DS should be the ultimate awesome 2D machine

PEOPLE!

The 3 Kingdom Hearts game rumor was from the SAME rumor that said: Final Fantasy VII - Endless Crisis!

But like I said before it's probably just a re-release of FFVII PSX on Blu-Ray:p With some extra FFVII sutff.

Wrong. The consoles/game names are totally different.

Edit: beaten. Damn these threads go fast.

Admitting that software is an urgent matter is important. You have to get past denial when on the road to recovery.

My disappointment has nothing to do with rumors and everything to do with the fact that it has been two years since Shadow of the Colossus. Why hasn't Sony shown anything new from the team?

WAS NOT A CONFERENCE, WAS A KEYNOTE. We did get a few neat things out of it, but the focus was invariably going to be on technology and Sony's position within the industry, NOT game announcements. We would've been lucky to get one, but we didn't. Nonetheless, there are other companies yet to talk.

Also, Afrika looks hawt.

The best part is that they NEVER learn. Next conference will see the same pattern emerge...I love it!

Just watched the "Afrika" video.

Is "Afrika" just an African version of Pokemon Snap with better graphics?

Were you guys really expecting a price cut for US/Europe to be announced at TGS in... Japan?...



Anyway to sum it up

- PSP-PS3 connectivity to be improved
- Wake-on-lan
- Dualshock 3, lots of games already support it
- HOME delayed
- Tons of new trailers
- PSN Store to be available on the PC

Well it wasn't that bad for a Keynote.

Looks like I won't get banned. No way the PS3 is gonna have another price drop this year, it would be like Sony admitting the system is a failure.

Animal Crossing is the ultimate example of its archaic, pixelated N64-era 3D.

I mean, say what you will about Wonderful World, that shit looked rad 'cause it was 2D. Awesome 2D. Taking advantage of what the system is good at, instead of relying on what the system is fucking atrocious at.
